Sounds Good Robert
You still getting rain over your way?

Still raining here. I have some baby backs I may throw on with a few links.

Plan on completing the guage installs on the truck finally found the right connection for the turbo boost pressure sensor.

Its a 1996 F-250 4x4 4.10 has a old tune in from years ago I had to have them change the shift points it was too harsh. They are no longer in busness.

Now is your chance to get rid of everything. Have a beer while it's leaving the garage.

radzero, hey man it's good to see you on the thread, I haven't pulled anything with mine yet, but I found out the mileage isn't as good as I thought it would be running empty, I only have 3500 miles, so maybe it isn't ready to give me that 21 mpg yet!
